If more people had paid ahead or paid off their mortgage the U.S. may have not have gone through the real estate melt down that we did. Also once a mortgage reaches its midpoint the interest vs principle payments make the tax deduction go away. Also, who
does not want to save tens of thousands of dollar over the life of a mortgage when you pay down the principle earlier?
